BLEACH, THE FINAL FRONTIER
By dj Date Masamune Also, friendly reminder from Kenpachi-sama… Need to Knows
• Panel will be available online + my resources on my blog • Will upload .pdf of PowerPoint that will be available post-con • Contact info. • Take a business card before you leave • If you have any questions left, feel free to ask me after the panel or e-mail me • ‘Discussion panel’ is nothing w/o the discussion part ~^.^~ How It’s Going to Be…
• For every arc, I’ll do a super quick, super basic summation (accompanied by a crapload of pics), then everyone else can add in their own things, move the crap on rapidly, rinse & repeat • i.e., everyone gets a chance to talk • So, none of that “anime expert”/“I know more than the panelist” b.s. • Important mindset to have: Bleach is a recently ended train wreck you can never look away from

• Ichigo's hair = black (on the cover) • After giving her powers to Ichigo, Rukia shrinks in size • Orihime dies and is taken to Soul Society at the end • Souls are given a ticket to enter Soul Society (vs. konsō) • Concept of tickets is reintroduced in chapter 546 of the manga. • Hollows do not have masks • Ichigo's shihakushō has a star pattern under both its sleeve, while Rukia's has a flame pattern. • Ichigo's Zanpakutō = size of a standard Zanpakutō. • *Orihime's father, who had died three years before Orihime's death, arrives to take her to Soul Society. Rukia identifies him as a Hollow and reveals that he killed Orihime so that she would stay with him forever, because she had stopped praying for him and seemingly forgot about him • In the anime, it was her bro, Sora Inoue. • Rukia = 3rd Division (Gin Ichimaru) • The Kurosaki family runs a mortuary rather than a medical clinic • Either way it’s ironic >.> THE BOUNT/BOUNT ASSAULT ON SOUL SOCIETY Ep 64-109
